Trezor.io/start – Official Start Page for Trezor Users

The official Trezor start page and companion guide to safely initialize your hardware wallet and secure your crypto.

Welcome to the official start experience

This page explains the official onboarding flow available at Trezor.io/start. It shows the correct steps to initialize your Trezor device, verify firmware, set a secure PIN, record your recovery seed, and connect to trusted wallet apps. The content below is optimized for clarity and search visibility while prioritizing actionable safety guidance.

1

Purchase authentic device

Buy Trezor devices only from official channels or verified resellers. Tampered devices can expose you to risk. Begin every setup by visiting Trezor.io/start to ensure you follow the official verification and firmware flow.

2

Unbox & inspect

Inspect tamper-evident seals and confirm accessories. Keep packaging until setup completes. If packaging looks altered, contact support instead of proceeding. The official start page has guidance for model-specific checks.

3

Connect & open Trezor Start

Connect the device to your computer and navigate to Trezor.io/start. The official site will detect your model and guide you through installation and firmware verification. Avoid copying links from emails—type the URL directly.

4

Install firmware & confirm integrity

If firmware installation or an update is necessary, follow the prompts in the official start flow. Verify checksums and fingerprints on the device display as directed to ensure you have authentic firmware.

5

Create PIN & record recovery seed

Set a strong PIN on-device and write down your recovery seed exactly as shown. Use the supplied backup card or a durable metal backup—never store the seed digitally. Your seed is the only way to recover funds if your device is lost or damaged.

6

Connect apps & verify transactions

Use trusted wallet apps and services to manage assets. All signing occurs on the device, keeping private keys offline. Verify transaction details on the device screen before confirming to avoid phishing or man-in-the-middle risks.

Security best practices

  • Always start at Trezor.io/start for firmware and official downloads.
  • Never disclose your recovery seed or PIN to anyone — no legitimate support will ask for them.
  • Store multiple offline backups of your recovery seed in different secure locations.
  • Consider an optional passphrase for additional account separation and privacy.
  • Test with small amounts before transferring large funds to cold storage.
